Key things to remember

The essentials from this document in plain words. Check the full document before you rely on a figure.

• ✓Two-part vinylester injection resin for anchoring threaded studs and rebar. Listed for cracked and non-cracked concrete, solid and hollow masonry, aerated concrete and natural stone (natural stone is not in the ETA). Styrene-free, usable in wet or flooded holes, with colour change technology.
• ✓Complies with AS 5216 and the NCC. ETA numbers on the sheet: 24/0507 (Option 1 and Option 7), 24/0506 (rebar), 24/0504 (masonry).
• ✓Sizes M8 to M24: hole diameter 10mm (M8) to 28mm (M24), effective embedment 60 to 96mm (M8) up to 100 to 288mm (M24), maximum torque 10 N-m (M8) to 90 N-m (M24). Minimum edge distance 35 to 65mm, minimum spacing 40 to 115mm.
• ✓Gel and cure times depend on base material temperature: at 20 to 29°C, 5 minutes working time and 30 minutes cure in dry concrete (60 minutes wet); at 0 to 9°C, 20 minutes and 90 minutes (180 wet). Resin must be at least 20°C.
• ✓Working load example, M12 at 110mm embedment, hammer-drilled dry or wet hole, any of the four steel grades tabled (5.8, 8.8, A4-70, A4-80), single anchor in C20/25 concrete, no edge or spacing effects, 24°C average and 40°C maximum short-term temperature: tension 1,330kg non-cracked, 390kg cracked. Working loads are design resistance divided by 1.4. Hollow or vacuum-drilled holes have their own tables.
• ✓One 300ml tube fills about 25 standard M12 holes (110mm deep, two thirds filled); a 420ml tube about 35.
• ✓Shelf life 18 months stored at 5 to 25°C, upright and out of direct sunlight.

Who it helps: Builders and engineers setting studs or rebar into concrete or masonry who need hole sizes, cure times and loads.
